Very cool moment at Dodgers Stadium last night. The ageless wonder is coming back.
From Scully in a statement:
“It is very difficult to say goodbye,” Scully said in a statement. “God willing I will be back next year. Over the years I have been blessed to have so many friends including those that sit in the stands and listen as well as those at home, who listen and watch. It is just too hard to say goodbye to all these friends. Naturally there will come a time, when I will have to say goodbye, but I’ve soul-searched and this is not the time.”
Still one of the best things about the game. The sport will not be the same when he’s gone and as a play by play guy myself, I’m in awe that he can still do what he does…at the level he does…at his age.
Compare that for example to Harry Caray, who didn’t even know what stadium he was in after the heart attack and who was a shell of himself the last few years on the air.
